"There are many fascinating beliefs and customs in the Dominican Republic. Little is written about them, and it's not possible to get well enough acquainted in a one or two week vacation to learn about them from the people, especially if you don't understand Spanish.
Each belief included in this book is held by a significant number of people, but not all who hold a belief practice it. Consecrated members of various churches, for example, renounce procedures which violate God's laws, such as those which do harm to others and those by which certain people transform themselves into animals, stumps or other objects. However, they know these procedures are practiced by others.
Several contributors expressed regret that younger people today are less interested in the beliefs of their elders, and that fewer than in the past are making the effort to master the procedures and rituals they entail. The reason may be the increasing availability of television, radio, and other commercial entertainment. If what is seen on TV, for example, is at odds with what the elders say, it is likely the traditional beliefs, regardless of their vailidity, are discounted by the younger members of the community.
Page titles include "Beware of the Baca", "Rx for Cheating Husbands", "Two Ways to Punish Tormenters", "Compliments are Hazardous to Health", "Live Forever Without Fear of Enemies", "Tying Your Mate for Life", "How to Catch a Murderer".
The book has 88 pages of text and drawings. This is a 2006 reprint. Multiple copies are available, including copies signed by the author if desired."
